5.0 out of 5 stars Delightful, and very superior to the Mitford novels, July 31, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Green Journey (Paperback)

Agatha is a wonderful character and Jon Hassler is one of our best novelists. His books are highly readable while being intelligent at the same time. You will feel like you made the journey to Ireland with her, but I preferred the parts set in the U.S. This book is not two-dimensional like the Mitford novel that I attempted to read and could get only halfway through. There is humor, excellent characterization, natural dialogue, and believable behavior. All of Jon Hassler's books are excellent, but the books which feature Agatha are his best.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Mitford-like story, May 7, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Green Journey (Paperback)

There is something of the feeling of the Mitford books in this pleasant tale of an elderly Catholic woman from a small Minnesota town. The characters are quirky but real, with unexpected but believable humanity.
